| Comments: |
Started late and had to be home early so Jackson was perfect. Used snoeshoes to the summit though it would have been easier to take them off before the slabs at the summit. Used spikes descending til I had enough of postholing. But if you stated center on the forming monorail spikes were enough. Great views. Got to the car before the heavy weather. |
